Yep I totally lost interest a while ago it got so repetitive

I lost interest during season 2 because it was just too on the nose and obvious, which is odd given that the Ennis original (which I love dearly) is about as unsubtle as you can get.

The other issue was I felt like they largely threw the anti-corporation themes out of the window in favour of making it a superhero show.

I loved the first season, but the way it was evolving in the second just didn't sit well with me.

Yep it steadily declined endless "homelander bad but can't be stopped because reasons"

I think "because reasons" is a pretty absurd reduction lol

The third is alright, closer to superhero slop than anti corporate. Fourth season is really good, shifts away from corpo satire and towards political satire really well. You should give it another shot when the final season drops.

That sounds like it goes all-in on what I disliked about it.

I'll pass.
